Holy Week and Easter @ Peace

It's been a joy to travel with you all through this Lenten season. Special thanks to all our Sunday school teachers, who have helped our kids step into the beautiful wilderness of Lent with silence, prayer rocks, stories, and hearts that are open to the whispers of the Spirit!

Just a reminder that at 10 am Easter morning, we'll be flowering our sanctuary cross! Bring any flowers you like, and join us as our cross bursts with new life, for all the world...

Please read on for information about all the holy week and Easter activities for children, youth, and families at Peace...

Holy Week Worship Services at Peace

We have a series of beautiful worship services planned for Holy Week here at Peace: a chance to pray, and sing, and wonder with friends of all ages as we follow Jesus through the mysteries of these sacred days.

Here at Peace, children of all ages are always welcome to worship with us, and we've scheduled these special services as early in the evening as possible, so that children can attend if they wish. This year, we will have childcare available during our Good Friday service.
